National opinions from university computing center documentors on procedures, ideals, and interpersonal relationships
Ann White · 1977
In this compendium 44 individuals who review or produce computer-related documentation at their university computing installations, have contributed their opinions on what it is like to be a “documentor” as well as their philosophy of what a “documentor” should be as a professional. The individuals responded to a questionnaire that explored the advantages and disadvantages of being a documentor, their techniques for communicating with the people they must inevitably communicate with—programmers, their experiences in developing documentation that meets certain standards of quality, and their attempts to educate others with regard to solving documentation production problems.
